EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (“Amendment No. 1”) amends our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 11, 2021 (the “Original Filing”). The sole purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to amend and restate Part I, Item 4 of the Original Filing in its entirety.

In accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), the Cover Page and Part I, Item 4 of the Original Filing is hereby amended and restated in its entirety. This Amendment No. 1 does not amend, modify, or otherwise update any other information in the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing. In addition, this Amendment No. 1 does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the May 11, 2021.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act, this Amendment No. 1 also amends Part II, Item 6 of the Original Filing to include new certifications pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which are filed herewith. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment No. 1, paragraph 3 of such certifications has been omitted. Similarly, because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment No. 1, certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 have been omitted.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, prior to filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, and as a result of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting of Part II, Item 9A of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, as well as our failure to include management’s report on internal controls in the Original Filing as described therein, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level.

As a public company, we are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in those internal controls. With respect to the year ended December 31, 2020, we identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting related to the design and implementation of our IT general controls including elevated (administrator) access to financial reporting systems and subsystems. Although we have made progress with the remediation of these issues, these efforts may not be sufficient to avoid similar material weaknesses in the future.

In response to the conclusion set forth above, management intends to implement the remedial measures described in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as well as the following additional remedial measures:

 

   

Evaluate and improve our disclosure committee process, procedures and meetings, including specific requirements to consider our internal control over financial reporting and the impact of the remedial measures described below; and

 

   

Retain outside counsel to specifically evaluate our disclosure controls and procedures.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that most of our employees are working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

(c) Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance, and not absolute assurance, that the desired control objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals in all future circumstances. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system are met and, as set forth above, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system were met.
